Next week (Thursday 24th May), I will be in London to present the first Domino Ethical Hacking/countermeasures workshop (spaces still available). On the same day, the Business Gets Social IBM event is also on in London. So, there should be a good few people around for Lotusbeers that evening. As ever I will defer to the locals (and Bill) for a venue so watch my tweets.
3 recent posts. 2 about drinking. Not good.
Yesterday, Bruce Elgort and Julian Robichaux released their podcast recorded with Gab Davis and I about connections101.net. In there we try to answer the questions we have been asked and reveal the sinister reasons behind the project. (insert muhahahaha noise here).
Next Thursday (10th May) I was hoping to meet up with a few of the merry men (and women) of London for some libations. I shall leave venue picking to the “locals” but if you are about, pencil in a few drinks in London city that night.
Update… Browns at West India Quay. 7.30pm on.
2 full backups to be taken tonight, the start repair/reinstall. Need to find some SSD disk health checking software for Mac
Don’t copy content blatantly and post a pissy link to the original source from hundreds of IT blogs, then cite bullshit reasons for doing it, then embed boatloads of advertising in the content you stole and expect people not to complain. This is a small community Ms Smith. Many of the community bump into each other professionally very frequently. Do you think this little episode has done your reputation harm, or good.
My original iPad is getting a new home. So my purchase was more out of necessity than desire. While in the Apple store in Belfast I picked up the 32gb Wifi model for myself. Although reviews have been done to death I thought I would give my 2c.
Can I be the first to not go on about the screen on the new iPad? The problem with the iPad1 (and especially the iPad2 with cameras) compared to the iPad”3″ is that there is not much functional difference. From an engineer’s perspective I can still do work on my iPad1, watch movies, listen to music, use my SIP gateway, Traveler, Connections, rdp, vnc and a lot more. The difference to me is speed. As new OS’s came out the iPad1 got slower and slower. Screen touch software needs to be responsive as there is no tactile response that lets you know you have clicked something. You need to see it happen. On the original model, you could be left waiting quite a few seconds for the processor to catch up with your fingers.
The iPad3 is fast. Well fast. Go faster stripes fast. It makes my experience a lot better. Yeah the screen is great, but that is lost on me. I am yet to use the camera. But it is now much more responsive to my needs.
Just some of the pictures taken over the four days. Good times.
